So many Bill’s so little time, and between the vote fraud and trying to sort through upcoming votes, we sometimes miss the follow up post on something we’ve been vocal about before the vote. I am referring to License plate scanners per HB 675. The Bill went down in flames. HB 675 came out of … Read more
New Hampshire State Rep Jane Cormier joins us to talk about HB 1573, An Act discontinuing regional planning commissions and requiring the election of municipal planning board members.

The Union Leader has a great editorial in this mornings Sunday News titles “Free Trains.” It is great for several reasons the least of which is that it mirrors concerns I have been expressing for years. No matter who pays to build them, someone has to pay to keep them. That would be New Hampshire Taxpayers. Democrats are aghast that the NH House would dissolve the New Hampshire Rail Transit Authority, because hey it doesn’t cost anything.
This year started with two days of session to consider all the bills held over from last year. As usual, the consent calendar of 146 non-controversial bills passed on a voice vote, after five were removed. Those bills would be considered individually at the end of the session.
I was prime sponsor for twelve bills this year. HB72, building code amendments, was killed because it duplicated SB 15, which passed. HB 628, legalizing possession and home grow of cannabis, was killed in the Senate (after passing the House 241-113!)
This is left over from the Windham (NH) Primary debate where one of the moderators was Ken Eyring – one of the most gentle, self-controlled, and smartest guys I know. Always prepared, always does his homework; he was treated rather badly by one of the candidates in the debate: RINO, Charlie McMahon (an incumbent Republican). … Read more
Democrat Gubernatorial Candidate Molly Kelly and her fellow Democrats running for office are touting Family Medical Leave as one of the most important issues in the upcoming election. What they don’t tell Granite Staters is that the legislation already exists and it is a TAX on income for employees and employers. Democrats won’t tell the … Read more
“Republican” Massachusets Governor Charlie Baker (who is up for re-election this fall) signed a bill to raise the minimum wage, add permanent tax holiday weekend, and something Granite Stater’s luckily (just) avoided. An $800 million paid family and medical leave program overseen by the state government and backed by a payroll tax will be launched so workers … Read more
The New Hampshire House recently passed a bill that would prohibit employers from having use-it-or-lose-it vacation policies. Employers that provide vacation time can expect their employees to use it up within a certain time, after which they lose it. HB1201 would require employers to give employees more time to use the vacation after which they would … Read more

The Commerce Committee report on HB 628 was inexpedient to Legislate. Kill the bill, they said. We don’t want to add dozens of bureaucrats and a mechanism to tax income in New Hampshire. But the 21 Republicans pictured above voted against the committee report. They saved the Income-tax built into the legislation. Without their “support” this … Read more

Is there a Media editorial blackout on opposition to HB 628, a tax on income disguised as an unnecessary, poorly written “family leave act” entitlement? Opponents of the measure report that while they have submitted letters to the editors of several New Hampshire newspapers they have not seen their remarks find their way into print.

For nothing is more “Democratic” than the mantra “your money is our money – you just haven’t realized it yet”.
